Cosy in Cabra

THIS two-bedroom mid-terrace home overlooks a huge green area in a mature part of Cabra. The house has been refurbished, upgraded and extended and now has 73sqm of living space.

The extension is architect-designed and stylish, while an impressive B3 BER has been achieved by the installation of an A-rated Baxi gas boiler with separate heat and water controls, Aluclad windows and Durkan Ecofix external insulation, ensuring that energy costs will remain modest.

Downstairs there’s a living room with a large window to the front and handy understairs storage. A sliding door leads to an open plan kitchen/dining room which in turn has floor-to-ceiling sliding doors providing access out to the rear garden. The kitchen is fitted with Neff cooking appliances and extractor.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms — one double and one single — with built-in wardrobes. The bathroom is fully tiled and has a rain shower.

Outside, a driveway to the front allows for off-street parking, and a secluded south-facing rear garden is laid in hardwood decking to allow comfortable eating out of doors.

The area offers a range of excellent schools, shops, restaurants and leisure amenities, and is within walking distance of the Phoenix Park, Botanic Gardens and Grangegorman DIT.

The Phibsborough Luas stop is less than a five-minute walk, and there are also six bus routes, which gives residents plenty of public transport options. For car-users, there is easy access to the N3 and M50, while Dublin Airport is a 20-minute drive away. AGENT: Sherry FitzGerald (01) 837 3737
